Ingredients
Cupcake batter:
- 1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
- 2 cups sugar
- 3 tsp vanilla extract
- 6 large eggs
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 cups sour cream
- Food coloring
Buttercream:
- 2 cups unsalted butter room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract or seeds from 1 vanilla bean
- 5 cups confectioner’s sugar
- Sprinkles
- candy
- edible glitter
Instructions
Bake the cupcakes:
- Beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until pale and smooth. Add the vanilla extract and eggs one at a time, mixing with each addition.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda and salt. Add this to the batter in 2 additions, alternating with the sour cream. Divide the batter into as many bowls as are colors in the pride flag of your choice and dye them with food coloring:
- Gay: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple
- Bisexual: pink, purple, blue
- Polysexual: pink, green, blue
- Transgender: blue, pink, white
- Genderqueer: purple, white, green
- Demisexual: white, black, purple, grey
- Asexual: black, grey, white, purple
- Pansexual: pink, yellow, blue
- Gender fluid: pink, white, purple, black, blue
- Intersexual: pink, white, blue
- Non-Binary: yellow, white, purple, black
- Agender: black, grey, white, green
- Spoon the different colors of batter into a lined cupcake pan in the order of the flag. Bake the cupcakes at 350F for 15-20 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centers comes out clean. Cool completely.
Make the buttercream:
- Beat the butter with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and confectioner’s sugar one cup at a time, beating with each addition.
- Just like the cupcakes, divide the buttercream into as many bowls as are colors in the pride flag of your choice. Use food coloring to dye the buttercream.
Decorate:
- To pipe a multi-color swirl, place a piping bag fitted with a large piping tip into a tall glass. Spread the different colors vertically into the piping bag, to create stripes of color. Squeeze the piping bag until you see all colors emerge from the tip.
- Pipe a swirl of buttercream onto your cupcakes.
- Decorate with coordinating candies, sprinkles and some edible glitter!
